FedEx just reported a strong quarter
FedEx still missed revenues. The best thing that happened to UPS was FedEx kicking Amazon out, because they no longer playinng against one another one in terms of pricing. GXO is completely different from FedEx. GXO is a cost-plus or take-or-pay business with inflation escalators. GXO has 6% of the 3rd-party logistics business globally and are the largest independent amid more outsourcing. GXO will be fine and will trade with market, outperforming UPS or FedEx.
GXO blew out top and bottom line numbers yesterday, growing like a weed and their raised their forecast. Shares went up yesterday and yet are down 5% today. Earnings don't matter--we're in a bear market.
Continues to like it, though logistics is not his favourite sector. GXO enjoys ongoing outsourcing trends (i.e. Amazon, Nike, Intel) from companies who pay for their services. He's very long GXO, but it's tenuous.
After holding it a long time, he sold it. They had a weak quarter with slowing growth a lot. The CEO is retiring. GXO is an acquisition candidate, but isn't sure if growth will resume.
